Product Info

Everyone knows how Head has ruled the World Cup Racing scene in recent years - their pro roster includes names like Bode, Ted, Didier, Lindsey and Maria. They don't come any faster. Truth is, though, if you were to get on a pair of their skis, you'd be shocked by the aggressive edgehold and raw power these things generate. Enter the Head i.Supershape Titan, a race-derived carver that's just slightly detuned to make all mountain carving more manageable for normal athletes. With World Cup Sandwich construction, a full Rebel Camber, and the KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) built into the ski to propel you out of every turn, the i.Supershape Titan is as close as you'll want to come to a true race ski for everyday skiing. Paired with the burly FreeFlex Pro 11 Binding, this setup will have you laying down trenches all day long. The Head i.Supershape Titan + FreeFlex Pro 11 Bindings: Don't trip on your way up to the podium!

Specs

Terrain

CarvingFor those that like the classic feeling of laying a ski over on edge and arcing a perfect turn, carving skis are what you want. These skis have narrower waists and shorter turn radii for edge to edge quickness and responsive turn initiation and exit on groomed runs and hard pack. The beginner-intermediate skis in this category are designed to make learning how to turn as easy as going from pizza to French fries.All-MountainAll-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Ability Level

Advanced-Expert
Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type

CamberCamber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Tail Type

Flat
This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.

I demo'd the ski a week before purchase in 170cm, but really wanted the 163cm to emphasize shorter radius lower speed carving -- the 163cm do seem to trade a bit of higher speed stability, but both the 170cm and 163cm are twitchy when flat on their bases going straight.

As for the short radius SL type carving I was after --these really do the trick and upped my game quickly over the few weeks since they arrived (full tune performed at StartHaus with standard 1-degree base, 2-degree side edge).

A well worthwhile investment in my opinion.

Service and delivery comments:

As the headline mentions, I think this was a great price for the ski-binding package.

Additionally, I was already in the mountains and called evo to see if we could work out next day delivery -- and sure enough without a hitch they arrive the next day, and I got them out for a spin that afternoon! What fun!!

Skied perfectly right out of the box. After two long runs I felt at home on them. Not too stiff, not too damp,a little chattery on frozen cordouroy, but what ski isn't? I'm 6'1" and 215 lbs., and chose the 170cm length. Maybe a little short but I love them. They are my go-to ski now, without hesitation. They are very fun skis that have already improved my carving.
